Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Am I infringing copyright when I convert text from a web page to speech and listen to it on my iPod?

A: This is very unlikely as long as the generated audio file is for your own personal use, is not for commercial gain and will not affect the market of the original work. Therefore you must not redistribute, broadcast or publish the resulting audio file. Just about every website has a copyright notice located at the bottom of every page. Clicking on this link will spell out your rights in detail. If in doubt, always consult this notice. You may also contact the copyright holder to seek clarification of your rights or to request permission for a specific use.

Q: Does Text2Go integrate directly with Firefox?

A: Not at this time. However as a workaround you have two options.

1. Use the Firefox add-on IE Tab. This allows you to display a web page using the Internet Explorer engine in a Firefox tab. It's commonly used to get around web pages that don't display correctly in Firefox. To use it with Text2Go, navigate to the desired web page, switch to an IE Tab, select the text you wish to convert to speech and then right-click to display the Text2Go context menu commands, 'Add Text', 'Speak Selected' and 'Text2Go'.
2. If you don't want to use the above IE Tab add-on, you will need to select the text you wish to convert to speech on the web page, copy it to the clipboard and then select the 'Add From Clipboard' command from the Text2Go context menu which is displayed when you right-click on the Text2Go icon in the system tray.
